DESCRIPTION:

This trail climbs quickly through stands of large fir trees. It passes by several springs and starts into a series of switch backs, climbing quickly to the top of the hill intersecting a trail coming west of Thunder Ridge Boy Scout Camp. Aspen is the dominant tree species as the trail climbs a small hill and overlooks Hendrickson Lake, a beautiful natural lake with a good population of catchable Brook Trout. The trail skirts around the east side of the lake where it enters a thick stand of mixed conifers and aspen, the trail continues through timber, aspen and small openings until it intersects with Dark Hollow Trail #032.
